Arsenal boss looking to move a number of strikers out of the club

Arsene Wenger admits he will seek to move some of Arsenal's strikers out of the club in the summer. The Gunners confirmed the signing of Cologne forward Lukas Podolski on Monday, with the German joining for an undisclosed fee. The North London club's attack is set to be shaken-up in the close-season, with top scorer Robin van Persie set to discuss a new contract. Nicklas Bendtner will also return to the club after spending a loan spell at Sunderland, while fringe players Ju Young Park and Marouane Chamakh have found chances hard to come by this season. Between them, Bendtner, Chamakh and Park have scored just 10 goals this season, although Park has featured only six times for Arsenal. Wenger said: "That's a situation that we have not sorted out yet but we will do that of course at the end of the season. "Some players didn't get enough opportunities here during the season and we will try to give them an opportunity to play if they get the chance somewhere else."
